Solving for variable 'p'.

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
5 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '5'.
0.8 + -1.6p + p2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.8' to each side of the equation.
0.8 + -1.6p + -0.8 + p2 = 0 + -0.8

Reorder the terms:
0.8 + -0.8 + -1.6p + p2 = 0 + -0.8

Combine like terms: 0.8 + -0.8 = 0.0
0.0 + -1.6p + p2 = 0 + -0.8
-1.6p + p2 = 0 + -0.8

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.8 = -0.8
-1.6p + p2 = -0.8

The p term is -1.6p.  Take half its coefficient (-0.8).
Square it (0.64) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.64' to each side of the equation.
-1.6p + 0.64 + p2 = -0.8 + 0.64

Reorder the terms:
0.64 + -1.6p + p2 = -0.8 + 0.64

Combine like terms: -0.8 + 0.64 = -0.16
0.64 + -1.6p + p2 = -0.16

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(p + -0.8)(p + -0.8) = -0.16
